Grilled Chicken Caesar Pizza

Print Recipe
Grilled Chicken Caesar Pizza is as fun as it is delicious. I took a shortcut, using grilled naan for the crust, topped it with cheese until melted, slices of grilled chicken, romaine that I tossed with a little of my homemade caesar dressing, Parmesan shavings and a sprinkle of black pepper. Whether you make it for lunch or on busy weeknights, it's sure to be a hit.

US Customary - Metric

Instructions

  • Preheat your grill to 400℉ (or 200℃).
  • Toss the chicken with a few tablespoons of caesar dressing and sprinkle both sides of each breast with lemon pepper.
  • Place the chicken breasts onto the hot grill grates and grill for 6 minutes on the first side. Turn and continue to grill for 4 to 5 more minutes or until the chicken is fully cooked and no longer pink. Transfer to a cutting board, cover with foil and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
  • Meanwhile, reduce the heat of your grill to 350℉ (or 180℃).
  • Brush both sides of the naan with olive oil. Grill for 1 to 2 minutes, turn and top each with 1/4 cup of mozzarella and sprinkle with a tablespoon of Parmesan. Close the lid for 1 minute or until cheese is melted.
  • Top with slices of grilled chicken. Quickly toss the sliced romaine with a few spoonfuls of dressing and divide it among the pizzas. Top with shavings of Parmesan (or more grated), season with black pepper and drizzle on more dressing if desired.
  • Slice and serve.
